The advantages of the BCP system include:
- Maximum reliability
- Minimum downtime
- Minimum maintainence
- Continous propeller hub condition monitoring.
- Minimum space requirement.
BCP Hub improves flexibility
To improve flexibility for ships equipped with a twin propeller solution, Berg added the feathered features to the BCP hub. In an emergency situation or a low ship speed, one of the propellers can be stopped and put into a feathered position. This way, the drag of the propeller is minimised. The result is a fuel saving – and redundancy equal – environment.
